Make no mistake, this is the man who will lead America for the next eight years. I was virtually walking on the air when I heard about his stunning victory in the Iowa caucus by trouncing Hillary Clinton and John Edwards (and not counting other minor Democratic candidates) by such a huge margin. For a non-white Presidential candidate to win convincingly in a lily-white state such as Iowa (95% white) says something about his character and how the issue of race has been a non-factor (so far) in the 2008 Presidential campaign. A win in the New Hampshire primary (another lily-white state, albeit with a markedly different socio-economic makeup) on Tuesday, January 8 will turn Obama into the undisputed Democratic Presidential nominee as the Obama-mania snowballs across various other state primaries. Nobody wants to back a loser, right? Come August at the Democratic Convention in Denver, he will have a lock on the nomination. With the public support for the Republican party in the gutters right now, the Democratic Presidential nominee is all but guaranteed for a seat in the Oval Office. President Obama does have a nice ring to it! To all the Beltway pundits who have discounted Obama's candidacy and have for all intents and purposes anointed Hillary as the de facto Democratic nominee, take your bitter pill and shove it up your collective know-nothing asses. Let's Barack n' Roll!
